1. GET INFORMATION FOR SYMPTOM

Get the detailed information from the customer about the symptom (the condition and the environment when
the incident/malfunction occurred).

>> GO TO 2
2. CHECK DTC
1. Check DTC.
2. Perform the following procedure if DTC is displayed.
- Record DTC and freeze frame data.
- Erase DTC.
- Study the relationship between the cause detected by DTC and the symptom described by the customer.
3. Check related service bulletins for information.
Is any symptom described and any DTC detected?
Symptom is described, DTC is displayed>>GO TO 3
Symptom is described, DTC is not displayed>>GO TO 4
Symptom is not described, DTC is displayed>>GO TO 5
3. CONFIRM THE SYMPTOM
Confirm the symptom described by the customer.
Connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle in “DATA MONITOR” mode and check real time diagnosis results.
Verify relation between the symptom and the condition when the symptom is detected.

>> GO TO 5
4. CONFIRM THE SYMPTOM
Confirm the symptom described by the customer.
Connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle in “DATA MONITOR ” mode and check real time diagnosis results.
Verify relation between the symptom and the condition when the symptom is detected.

>> GO TO 6
5. PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
Perform DTC Confirmation Procedure for the displayed DTC, and then check that DTC is detected again.
At this time, always connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle, and check diagnostic results in real time.
If two or more DTCs are detected, refer to BCS-83, "DTC Inspection Priority Chart" and determine trouble
diagnosis order.
NOTE:
• Freeze frame data is useful if the DTC is not detected.
• Perform Component Function Check if DTC Confirmation Procedure is not included in Service Manual. This
simplified check procedure is an effective alternative though DTC cannot be detected during this check.
If the result of Component Function Check is NG, it is the same as the detection of DTC by DTC Confirma-
tion Procedure.

< FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS > [BCM]

FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS
BODY CONTROL SYSTEM
System Description INFOID:0000000001344635

OUTLINE
• BCM (body control module) controls the various electrical components. It inputs the information required to
the control from CAN communication and the signal received from each switch and sensor.
• BCM has combination switch reading function for reading the operation status of combination switches (light,
turn signal, wiper and washer) in addition to a function for controlling the operation of various electrical com-
ponents. It also has the signal transmission function as the passed point of signal and the power saving con-
trol function that reduces the power consumption with the ignition switch OFF.
• BCM is equipped with the diagnosis function that performs the diagnosis with CONSULT-III and various set-
tings.
CAN communication control
In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2 communication lines (CAN-L, CAN-H) allowing a
high rate of information transmission with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/receives the data but selec-
tively reads required information only.
CAN communication signal
Refer to the LAN-25, "CAN Communication Signal Chart".

OUTLINE
• BCM reads the status of the combination switch (light, turn signal, wiper and washer) and recognizes the

Description
• BCM reads the status of the combination switch at 10ms interval normally.
D

F
JPMIA0067GB

NOTE:
BCM reads the status of the combination switch at 60ms interval when BCM is controlled at low power con- G
sumption mode.
• BCM operates as follows and judges the status of the combination switch.
- INPUT 1 - 5 outputs the voltage waveforms of 5 systems simultaneously. H
- It operates the transistor on OUTPUT side in the following order: OUTPUT 5 → 4 →3 →2 →1.
- The voltage waveform of INPUT corresponding to the formed circuit changes according to the operation of
the transistor on OUTPUT side if any (1 or more) switches are ON.
- It reads this change of the voltage as the status signal of the combination switch. I

JPMIA0068GB

Operation Example
In the following operation example, the combination of the status signals of the combination switch is replaced
as follows: INPUT 1 - 5 to “1 - 5” and OUTPUT 1 - 5 to “A - E”.
Example 1: When a switch (TURN RH switch) is turned ON

Revision: July 2007 BCS-9 2008 Altima

 COMBINATION SWITCH READING SYSTEM
< FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS > [BCM]
• The circuit between INPUT 1 and OUTPUT 5 is formed when the TURN RH switch is turned ON.

JPMIA0073GB

• BCM detects the combination switch status signal “1E” when the signal of OUTPUT 5 is input to INPUT 1.
• BCM judges that the TURN RH switch is ON when the signal “1E” is detected.
• Example 2: When some switches (TURN RH switch, FR WIPER LOW switch) are turned ON
Example 2: When some switches (turn RH switch, front wiper LO switch) are turned ON
• The circuits between INPUT 1 and OUTPUT 5 and between INPUT 1 and OUTPUT 3 are formed when the
TURN RH switch and FR WIPER LOW switch are turned ON.

JPMIA0074GB

• BCM detects the combination switch status signal “1CE” when the signals of OUTPUT 3 and OUTPUT 5 are
input to INPUT 1.
• BCM judges that the TURN RH switch and FR WIPER LOW switch are ON when the signal “1CE” is
detected.
WIPER INTERMITTENT DIAL POSITION SETTING (FRONT WIPER INTERMITTENT OPERATION)
BCM judges the wiper intermittent dial 1 - 7 by the status of INT VOLUME 1, 2, and 3 switches.

LOW POWER CONSUMPTION CONTROL WITH BCM
BCM reduces the power consumption with the following operation in the low power consumption mode.
• The reading interval of the each switches changes from 10 ms interval to 60 ms interval.
BCS
Sleep mode activation
• BCM receives the sleep-ready signal (ready) from IPDM E/R and combination meter via CAN communica-
tion. N
• BCM transmits the sleep wake up signal (sleep) to each unit when all of the CAN sleep conditions are ful-
filled.
• Each unit stops the transmission of CAN communication with the sleep wakeup signal. BCM is in CAN com-
munication sleep mode. O
• BCM is in the low power consumption mode and perform the low power consumption control when all of the

• 1 - 39: Displayed if any previous malfunction is present when current condition is normal. It increases like 1
→ 2 → 3...38 → 39 after returning to the normal condition whenever ignition switch OFF → ON. The counter
remains at 39 even if the number of cycles exceeds it. It is counted from 1 again when turning ignition switch C
